I am in agreement with you on the BBC North West Today / Tonight titles in 2007/08. Fantastic set of short lived titles that were produced to a high standard of quality. For me it had a good template that could have easily been duplicated to other regions. Also with the locations scrolling along the bottom and - as you put it - data streams being featured travelling the region. It had tons going for it.
One slight minor detractor with these titles was the whole "Live News / Local News / Your News" tagline thing at the bottom. But as I see it now looking back from 2023. It was of the era when taglines for news programmes were en vogue.
As I type thing and consider what to add. I wonder if with the locations used. Manchester, Laxey, Blackpool, Liverpool & Buxton would have been rotated with other towns and cities in the region if the titles had gone the distance.
